pected to be smaller.”
It was further pointed out in the
college statement on the meat ani
mals outlook that the reduction in
the meat supply during the 1940-41
marketing year would be due princi
pally to fewer hogs. The supply of
hogs for the 1939-40 season was the
greatest in five years, following the
largest pig crop on record in 1939.
The pig crop of 1939 was estimated
at 86 million head. In 1940, the pig
crop was reduced to 77 million head,
and a considerable further reduction
in 1941 was indicated by the pig crop
report.
